MOST RAD NEWS
-----------------------------
The awesome GANG GANG DANCE have re- scheduled the Bristol show.
This will be one of two only headlining shows in the UK this year.
The Bristol show will be the official warm-up for their show at Brixton Academy (supporting ANIMAL COLLECTIVE !)
Wednesday 19th of August 2009
Qu Junktions & Glaive Concerts presents:
GANG GANG DANCE
+ The Color of The Sun
~ Fleece ~
12 St. Thomas Street Bristol BS1 6JJ
0117 945 0996 - 8PM - 12.00

Tickets 10 pounds in advance
On sale at Bristol Ticket Shop, Here Shop and See Tickets.
------i-n-f-o--------------------
This gang gang from Brooklyn, have emerged from a very fertile, indigenous music scene in their neighbourhood but have branched out way WAY further with their hook ups and hooks. It is a ghetto world music that declines fey introspection but invites in disparate saturated sounds and bang bang dance dynamics. Their multi-faceted music style was first brought to our attention following a series of releases on forward-thinking label, The Social Registry; and subsequently, they have found a suitable home on Warp Records.

The bands assemblage of wonky techno, outer rock, faux arabesque and other strange, spiralling, sinuous music forms that transcend categorisation. Utterly unique and iconoclastic.

“The eclectism is exhilarating” Uncut

“Excellent… a psychotropid mind meld” – Plan B

“Gang Gang Dance may now ascend to the bona fide league of geniuses.”

Fresh from their show at Barcelona's Primavera festival, Teeth Mountain will be unleash their heavy concoction of new-wave tribal psychedelic sounds on Cube, using driving percussion like other bands use guitars.

Deep, thick layers of rhythms and overlays of ambiance, from the gritty to the sublime, this eight-piece outfit create a controlled mayhem of weighty neo-tribal trance music, part Indian, part African, part Balkan, and part Baltimore, that transforms consciousness and carries the group and their listeners to higher states.

The Wire magazine recently praised their 'refusal to acknowledge any kind of destination point for their jamming, achieving a convincing state of suspension throughout, helped by some engagingly forceful drumming.'

Teeth Mountain pummel with noise and drums but are always inviting and joyous, a new wave of tribal sounds in underground music. Be prepared to witness a heady, peyote-voodoo brew, getting you out of your seats and on your feet.
Teeth Mountain will enthrall you in a rhythmic, musical spell.

hello good people

this is where you should be on SATURDAY!
MOTHER'S RUIN

Rampant Rabbit.

Continuing Leeds' strong tradition of exciting DIY noise rock, Rampant Rabbit are a rare and strange blend brewed in 2007. Musically, the dual bass trio deftly manoeuvre between complex math funk out riffs not dissimilar to Faraquet or Oxes and sludge-laden doom drones for fans of Boris or Melvins. Also they have fit young faces and lots of shouting.

Numbering just 8 strings between them members Henry Myers (Hank Haint, Zoob Toob) Luke James Webb (Dawn Chorus) & Adam Nodwell (Signuls, Massive Heron) have grown a maze of entangling rhythms on a solid foundation of mega-loud rock that celebrates influences including Fugazi, Shellac & Zu. Rampant Rabbit have already stunned crowds supporting the likes of I'm Being Good, Action Beat, Bilge Pump, That Fucking Tank, Take a Worm for a Walk Week, Lords, Nisennenmondai, Cleckhuddersfax & Oxes.


Rampant Rabbit will have a stricly limited edition EP 'Power Trio 2007 - 2009' on tour with them available only at the gigs!

ahh valentines day,
how nice. here's a decent idea after dinner.
come down to bristol county sports club and experience

dethscalator
http://www. myspace. com/dethscalator
++plan b review++
"Despite being fronted by Hokaben's chief organisational driving force, the presence of stoned-squall rockers Dethscalator here is entirely justified on their own merits. With riffs the size of London itself, their only two self-confessed influences - Black Sabbath and Scatch Acid - are undeniable. Considering any band that claims zero musical hat tips are ordinarily balls-out liars, though, you may as well choose the best. Hollering singer Dan Chandler paces on a trajectory only he can visualise, a bear with a shaven, sore head. And in 'Bradford Cockfight' they wield a memorable mid-Atlantic scrap played out halfway between Birmingham and Texas." - Adam Anonymous, Plan B, Issue 40/Dec 2008
